Fu Man was so close to asking, âDid we pick up the wrong child?â
The excellence and uniqueness of Lu Mian had given her the impression, for a moment, that she was not worthy of such an outstanding child.
But upon further thought, she felt even more ashamed and embarrassed.
She was now using this assumption to comfort the guilt and regret in her heart.
She quickly retracted her message.
Although she also understood that it was very likely that Lu Zhizhai wouldnât see her message, she would have to digest all her bitterness alone.
ââ
After school at noon, there was new activity in the stock investor chat group Su Jue participated in.
He hurriedly opened it to check.
Some members were eagerly asking when the expert would post new messages.
The groupâs owner quickly replied, âThe expert said, as long as that loser isnât kicked out of the group, they wonât post any messages.â
Su Jue shuddered at the message, suddenly filled with a sense of mission.
For the entire stock investor group, he had to do something.
He dumped all the information he had gathered into the group: âLu Mianâs zero-score report card,â âLu Mian fighting in the classroom footage,â âLu Mian reading a novel during class photos.â
He even @d Lu Mian, adding, âThis is the troublemaker. Everyone, please wise up and kick out the loser together!â
Lu Mianâs account in the group was also the one she had personally set up.
With full confidence and without fear, Su Jue believed that even without the recent monthly test scores, the evidence he had would suffice to generate hatred against Lu Mian.
The power of public opinion was not to be underestimated; if he could incite the group members to act against Lu Mian, kicking her out would be only a matter of time.
He did not expect thanks from the members; he just wanted to teach Lu Mian a lesson.
Thinking he had covered all his bases, Su Jue sent the message and, feeling self-satisfied, leaned back in his chair to wait for the groupâs inevitable explosion.
He remembered his few limited encounters with Lu Mian. To be honest, Lu Mian was sometimes quite charismatic, but she was too unruly and frustrating, having made him lose face on several occasions.
With Su Luo refusing to help him, he had no choice but to take matters into his own hands and curb Lu Mianâs arrogance. A girl shouldnât be so defiant; being docile and sweet was more fitting for a girl.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
After Su Jue sent the message, the group went silent for a while, probably looking over these âevidence.â
Ya Ling was hanging out at a bar, noticed the commotion in the group but did not stop it. She just slightly curved her red lips upwards, took a gulp of strong liquor, and laughed with interest.
Su Jue was constantly monitoring the groupâs messages, but the silence started to catch him off guard; he even wondered if his internet had disconnected.
Until he received the first reply.
âSheâs so pretty and cool, I saved the video and watched it like a dozen times!â
Su Jue: ???
This was not the reaction they were supposed to have!
âThe way she sits by the window sill reading a novel is just like love.â
âI really want a girlfriend like that! awsl!â
âHonestly, a girl beating up a guy, Iâm feeling embarrassed for the guy for three seconds!â
Su Jue watched the group messages in dismay as one by one they praised Lu Mian, veering off-topic so far that no one mentioned anything about kicking someone out.
Su Jue emphasized, âPay attention! This person is the trash of the group; donât miss the main point, everyone!â
âBut, whatâs the problem with that?â someone asked.
Su Jue typed frantically, âHer problems are huge. Sheâs not focused on studying, gets into fights, has severed ties with her parents and sister, and has the worst grades. Not one of these complies with the group rules. Shouldnât such a person be kicked out?â
âThen what?â
Su Jue felt that the stock investors in the group were out of their minds, âSheâs a cancer! Do you all want to keep her here and prevent the expert from ever posting messages again?â
Finally, someone spoke up in the group.
âBro, have you got it wrong? The person you @ed is our expertâ¦â
The Novel will be updated first on this website. Come back and continue reading tomorrow, everyone!
